I have already known about this reg thing, and also have the .reg file
to restore such a change to the default. What's the problem with it is
that I don't think so, that anybody would like to make the php.net searchbar
as their default search bar, and even if they do, then we need to include
a general search option (google, fastsearch, etc), so they can still get
what they have "lost" with making our toolbar the default. And we would
not like to act as a "proxy" for other search engines... Anyway, this may
be posted on the site in the future, but needs some discussions...
